Picking Up Fares:
Always stop as close as possible to each customer. If they have to run, you have
less time to drop them off, and they yell at you. If you know where the passenger
is heading, try to face in that direction when you stop, preferably with a Crazy
Drift. If you are not sure, hedge your bets and stop halfway between the two directions. Both courses are complete circuits, so the best
way to play is to continuosly complete laps. On the arcade track, this means you msut
go through town, along the freeway, to downtown, to the bus terminal and round to the university again. It makes sense then to try to pick up fares
that won't ahve you backtracking.
The Colour of Money:
All potential customers have their own colour code corresponding to the distace they want to go and the
potential earnings you can make from picking them up. Look out for the Green customers;
they travel the farthes and pay the most, while Reds go the shortest and pay the lease.
For maximum earnings your customer priority should be: Green, Lime, Yellow, Orange,
Red.
Tip Tips:
Every time you pulll off a Crazy Hit trick, a tip is added to your fare. Crazy Hits
then link into combos until you have a front-end collision with another vehicle
when they reset. Good places to rack up the tips are following the cable car
going down the hill and on the freeway.
Unlock Crazy Bike:
On the Character Select Screen, hold L1+R1, then release L1, then R1. Hold L1+R1 again
and then release them together. Finally, press X and you should hear a bicycle bell.
Now when you start a game, your character will be riding around on a bike instead
of driving a taxi. The passengers jump on the back!
Unlock Another Day:
On the Character Select Screen, press R1 and then release it. Then hold R1 and press X. When the game starts,
press Circle to switch to an in-car view, or Triangle to switch to a rather confusing pan-cam.
